You’re one step away from your dream master’s program in Canada or a shiny new visa for Australia, but there’s a catch: you need your Indian university transcripts evaluated by WES (World Education Services). Sounds like a tough task? But don’t worry. At Worldwide Transcripts, we’ve helped thousands of students and professionals through this process with ease. In this guide, we will break down what is WES evaluation is, walk you through getting your transcripts from Indian universities like Mumbai or Anna University, and share essential tips to avoid common Issues. So ready to make your global dreams a reality? Let’s get started.
What Is a WES Evaluation and Why Do You Need It?
A WES evaluation is like an interpreter for your academic credentials. It takes your Indian university transcript, say, from Delhi University or IGNOU, and compares it to the education system of your destination country, like Canada or the US. The result? A report that tells universities, employers, or immigration authorities (like Canada’s Express Entry) exactly what your qualifications are worth.
Why it matter? Without a WES evaluation, your application for study abroad or immigration could be delayed. For example, the American or Canadian immigration system requires a WES report to verify your education points. It’s your access to proving your Indian degree is the real deal.
How to Get Your Transcripts for WES: A 5-Step Guide
Here’s your roadmap to getting those transcripts ready for WES evaluation:
Step 1: Understand What WES Requires
For better understanding, visit the WES website and create your profile by paying the required WES evaluation fee. Once you select the country of education and the institute, WES will tell you exactly what is required, which can include:
- Your Academic Transcript in a sealed envelope.
- The envelope has to be shipped directly from the university’s postal code.
Step 2: Collect All Required Documents
Each Indian university has its own transcript process, but most commonly, you’ll need:
- Clear photocopies of annual or semester-wise mark sheets
- Degree certificate (final or provisional)
- Government of India issued photo ID (like Aadhaar or Passport)
- Your WES reference number
- Transcript application form
These documents help your university cross-check with their records and issue your Academic Transcript as per WES Admissions Requirements.
Step 3: Apply for Transcripts from Your University
You can Apply for Transcripts directly at your university’s transcript office. But here’s the catch: the process can be lengthy, with multiple campus visits, unclear instructions, or delays in communication.
Step 4: Let the University or Service Provider Send the Transcript to WES
Once your transcript is ready:
- It must be sealed, signed, and stamped by the issuing university.
- It must be sent directly to WES, either via courier or electronically (if the university is partnered with WES).
- Your WES reference number must be clearly mentioned.
Please note that WES does not accept transcripts sent by individuals. It has to come from the university directly.
Step 5: Track Your WES Evaluation
After WES receives your transcript, you can track the status in your WES dashboard. Evaluations typically take 7–20 business days once the documents are received, but timelines may vary. Once your Transcript for WES evaluation is reviewed and processed, WES will share a report with you and the institution you’re applying to , immigration, university, or employer.
